Plagiarzing

Well, I caught someone plagiarize my story. It's on wattpad, and it's tagalog. I have a fan there and she's been voting and commenting. Until I found her username in this shop And I clicked the story. It was in tagalog too, and her prologue was the same with mine. Like really? =.= It wasn't the first time I saw her like that. Actually, she already made an english version of my story, but I think he deleted it immediately.

Now, here is my question. Do you call that plagiarzing?? Translating a tagalog story to english story. like whuuut. i don't want to PM her and ______ . I can't explain. I feel disapponited.

I agree that is plagiarizing already and to be honest it's worst since she/he translated it into Filipino ... sino pa bang hindi maaasar don... anyway you can still voice this concern

Maybe , because she don't ask you permission so we can call it as plagiarizing .

well from what i learned she should have asked if it was okay. she should have first gotten your permission.

She should have asked for your permission first before she translate it to other language or post it at other place. Confront her and ask her nicely about it, you can ask her to put down the story if you want to.

you can call it plagiarizing if she claimed the story as hers but translating it without your permission in the first place is wrong either.
